We Remember…

We wanted to show you something red, white and blue that is very special to us. In 2001 we made over 60 flag baby quilts. These quilts were sent to People magazine when we heard they were doing a story about all the children that were born without a father due to 9 11 attacks.

Each quilt had a Texas Bluebonnet backing and a handmade, calligraphy quilt label that read,

“You and your family have touched our lives. May this quilt wrap you with the warmth from our hearts.”

Sew something red, white and blue today and snuggle with those you love.

The Moda Bake Shop is a division of Moda Fabrics that provides online recipes which you can use with the wide range of Moda Pre-cuts. All sizes and types of projects will be featured from various designers and shops. Tutorials for various Moda projects sheets will be illustrated with step by step pictures. Some techniques and products will also be featured throughout, so check back often for what is "baking" here at Moda Fabrics.

What a touching blog entry. My husband served as an Infantry Officer in the Army and spent 15 months in Iraq. I have bookmarked the Quilts of Valor website and will definitely participate in this program in the future.

I am glad to see this today. I dressed myself and 2 little ones in red, white and blue today and we seemed to be the only ones at school this morning who remembered. I certainly hope not. Thank you for this entry and for remembering with me!

Yes, we will forever remember. My girls and I are dressed in red, white and blue from head to toe today. Your quilts and the message on the back brought tears to my eyes. Thanks for all you did that day, and continue to do!

With my friends on facebook, we all posted where we were and how 9-11 impacted us. Glad to know that so many others are out there remembering our fallen brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, children … thank you for remembering with us all.
